About Me

My Photo
Rachel Power
Melbourne, Australia
I am a Melbourne-based writer and editor. My latest book is The Divided Heart: Art and Motherhood (Red Dog Books), featuring conversations with some of Australia's most prominent writers, artists and musicians about combining the twin passions of art and motherhood. My previous book was Alison Rehfisch: A Life for Art (The Beagle Press).
